The Bay of Pigs Invasion was a foreign policy embarrassment for the Kennedy Administration.
When John Kennedy assumed the presidency after Dwight Eisenhower, he was faced with the pressure to act on Cuban dictator Fidel Castro's growing relationship with the Soviet Union (yet another of US' formidable enemies).
His senior advisers urged him to authorize the attack on Cuba and initiate a movement to overthrow Fidel Castro. This played on Kennedy's foreign principle which is for Democratic countries such the US to show a strong force against dictatorships like Castro's. In April 1961, the invasion at the Bay of Pigs failed extremely. Castro was quick to mobilize his militia to counter Kennedy's botched plan. Aside from this, Kennedy made some worst decisions that nailed the coffin shut. Thus the Kennedy Administration suffered a lot of damage due to this failure.

Answer:
33.17%
Explanation:
WACC = (D/E) rd (1 - tax rate) + (E/D) re
(D/E) = Debt to equity ratio
rd = pretax cost of debt
(E/D) = equity to debt ratio
re = cost of equity
0.66 x 8.9 x 0.54 + 19.8 x 1.52 = 3.17 + 30 = 33.17%

Answer: d. a two year opportunity cost of $40,000 after leaving her teaching position.
Explanation:
The opportunity cost of a decision refers to the returns from the next best alternative to that decision that you would miss out on for taking the decision you took.
The next best alternative here is to teach in a school for $44,000 a year. She is giving this up for 2 years so she is giving up pay of $88,000.
However, she will be making $24,000 a year from the dance company so her net opportunity cost is:
= Amount from high schools in 2 years - Amount from dance company in 2 years
= 88,000 - (24,000 + 24,000)
= $40,000
